May your champagne wishes and caviar dreams come true in 2013! More importantly, Marketman & Family wishes you a healthy, prosperous and peaceful 365.25 days ahead!

We are having a quiet meal at home and heading off to a friend’s rooftop vantage point above the Makati fireworks display at midnight… Fingers crossed that it doesn’t rain. I hope all of you stay safe. Happy New Year!!!

Josephine, just recently had spectacular canned mussels from Spain. And some FABULOUS peacches preserved in peach nectar/sugar water. How they manage to sometimes make canned or bottled things taste better than fresh truly amazes me… A gustatory trip through San Sebastian and environs is on Mrs. MM and my bucket list. :)

Same enjoyment here out of the bottled peaches (from Espana) we found at Trader Joe’s – firm, juicy (unlike the canned variety) and the difficulty of finding a truly luscious peach even when it is summer here. Also the occasional splurge of ordering conservas, jamon iberico from la tienda – the closest one gets to when dreaming of foodie road trip, like you and the mrs. plan to take – san sebastian, coruna. love espana!! Happy new year to all – good health and stability.
